If a management team wishes to boost the company's stock price, then it should consider pursuing actions to meet or beat the annual investor-expected EPS targets, raising the company's a. dividend each year by $.30 per share or more, and repurchasing shares of common stock. b. increasing the company's retained earnings each year, spending amounts on corporate citizenship and social responsibility that are below the industry average, maintaining a debt- to-assets ratio below 0.25, and maintaining an interest coverage ratio of 5.0 or higher. c. increasing competitive efforts to boost its market share of branded footwear in all geographic regions, spending additional money on corporate citizenship and social responsibility, and actions to achieve an image rating above 75. d. issuing shares of common stock to fund capital requirements rather than relying on bank loans, keeping the company's dividend payout ratio between 25% and 50%, and maintaining a credit rating that is no less than B+. e. boosting the company's dividend payout ratio to more than 75%, increasing the company's retained earnings, and avoiding the use of bank loans to finance capital expenditures.
